Abstract
In this investigation, we successfully employed the Non-Uniform Rational B-spline (NURBS) to study the fracture mechanics. the NURBS functions are very popular in the design field (CAD model) and it is used as an alternative to Lagrange interpolation polynomials. The extended isogeometric analysis based on this basis function is used to evaluate the stress intensity factors (SIFs) in order to control the crack propagation. For various crack lengths, SIFs were calculated to validate the accuracy of this technique. The results obtained are in good agreement with the available techniques as CFEM, X-FEM.
